Regarding Mirrors, a Short Poem

Regarding Mirrors , a short poem

I cannot walk, so do not pass them.
Me unseen.
Only my iPad turns this  way,
But apparently doesn’t want to.
Me staying unseen.
My inner mirror I do
Not let lean green; l keep
It held in a year long gone by
With no gray hair and feeling
The sparkle in my eyes still bright.
Me seen 
Going on in happy memory.

Sally, This is a most unusual poem, concise, challenging with lines that segue effortlessly. My poem “Sensual Loss Sensual Gain” which you liked has been awarded a first place medal in a poetry soup contest. Thanks for everything Howard

Sally I read in 1 of your kind comment's you placed. You we're in a Coma. I wrote a poem myself early on when I began called Code Coma . I myself have never been in a Coma I find it fascinating though. The poem I wrote was more a way of trying to imagine how puzzling it must be. If you have the time please will you read it Sally. Thank you Cheers try and
